The publication deals with the character of the famous Czech traveller, Enrique Stanko Vráz (1860–1932), and presents a selection of his unique photographs to the reader. The text is divided into three chapters, each of them devoted to one aspect of the life of this personality – Vráz’s as yet unexplained origin, Vráz’s world travels and Vraz’s photographic activities. The pictorial insertion contains photographs from the years 1885 to 1904 of the regions of Africa (Gold Coast – today’s Ghana, the Canary Islands), South, North and Central America and Asia (Japan, Kalimantan, New Guinea, Thailand, China, Korea, Siberia).
